JavaScript HTTP Adapter

Overview

By using HTTP adapters, you can send GET or POST HTTP requests and retrieve data from the response headers and body. HTTP adapters work with RESTful and SOAP-based services, and can read structured HTTP sources such as RSS feeds.

You can easily customize HTTP adapters with simple server-side JavaScript code. For example, you could set up server-side filtering if necessary. The retrieved data can be in XML, HTML, JSON, or plain text format.

The adapter is configured with XML to define the adapter properties and procedures.
Optionally, it is also possible to use XSL to filter received records and fields.
